UCLA Department of Art Lectures: Jennifer Pastor

  • This is a past program

Though Jennifer Pastor’s work is informed by recognizable societal moments, she “has no interest in quick reads, trendy gimmicks or convictions that take shape in the blink of an eye,” wrote the Los Angeles Times critic David Pagel in 2013. For her large-scale sculpture Endless Arena (2009–12), she extensively researched the murky world of underground fighting. Pastor’s work is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and she had a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, in 2004.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from the Dream Fund at UCLA. 

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, an anonymous donor, and all Hammer members. 

The Hammer’s digital presentation of its public programs is made possible by the Billy and Audrey L. Wilder Foundation.
